Released along with the first {{TCG|Pokémon V}} cards, '''Pokémon VMAX''' introduce the Dynamax and [[Gigantamax]] mechanics into the Trading Card Game. Pokémon VMAX evolve from their respective Pokémon V, giving them boosted {{TCG|Hit Points}} (so far, the biggest HPs in a Pokémon card) and more powerful attacks. When a VMAX Pokémon is knocked out, the opponent takes three Prize cards instead of one.
